You should watch it, the fifth set will go down in history as a classic.Teetris said:I go away for pizza after Federer's 2-0 score thinking he'd bag this and Novak finds a way to win?!?! Damn, legendary stuff. Hope I can catch a replay of the match somewhere tomorrow

We shouldn't encourage the idea that the British can be good at sports.
Haha agreed, I'm not a Murray fan, but Nadal just simply can't hurt him unless he's pelting forehands, and Murray isn't letting him do much of that.

Nadal should call a trainer, get the mental game going early...maybe apply some more tape to his body, psych out Murray a little bit

Scottish. Would be good to see Murray get the win, but not holding out much hope.

I know, I know. I was just playing to the joke he's British when he wins, Scottish when he loses.
Oh yeah, I always try to have copies of semi-finals and the final of grand slams, so I'm sure I'll be looking at this one a lot in the future checking out what went wrong exactly. Looking at the press conf he seemed to be pretty damn disappointed, I have a feeling it'll fuck with him for at least a week or soClegg said:You should watch it, the fifth set will go down in history as a classic.
Fed will be disappointed for a while then he will remember the 16 slams in his trophy cabinet and his bank balance.Teetris said:Oh yeah, I always try to have copies of semi-finals and the final of grand slams, so I'm sure I'll be looking at this one a lot in the future checking out what went wrong exactly.

I'm sure he'll be fine.

b.mak said:great point by murray.
by the way, i've seen a couple people have this thing on their ear with a string hanging down. what is that?
I'm guessing its so they can hear some sort of commentary? They use if for the Snooker as well.
I used to think this was an exclusive thing to Roger's dad :lolb.mak said:great point by murray.

It's probably for commentary, yeah, maybe translated commentary

Yea, adding those earpieces to snooker was a genius move.

Kerber is an unbelievable fair player. She keeps on applauding her opponents even at break points.

By keeping serve? ahuahuha
Murray's just being Murray. In today's tennis there's the top 3, and then there's the rest.

Only if Murray wasn't Scottish. Being Scottish is a handicap when it comes to any sport.

True, but then that goes back the fact it can be practised in the pub! Del Amitri summed it up with that song, "Don't Come Home Too Soon". Which was basically, "We know we're rubbish, just try and not be too bad".

Murray setting up for the "Glorious Failure" that is in Scottish blood.
